Kevin and Randy Muise have a jar containing 32 coins, all of which are either quarters or nickels. The total value of the coins

givi [52]

Answer:

19 quarters and 13 nickles

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 32 coins in your pocket consisting of nickels and quarters with a total value of $5.40

How many nickels and quarters do you have?

Step 1: Setup Coin Value and Coin Total Equation:

Coin Value Equation → 0.05n + 0.25q = $5.40 where n = nickels and q = quarters

Coin Total Equation → n + q = 32

Step 2: Rearrange Coin Total Equation in terms of nickels (n)

n = 32 - q ← Revised Coin Total Equation

Step 3: Plug in our Revised Coin Total Equation for n into our Coin Value Equation:

0.05(32 - q) + 0.25q = $5.40

0.05(32) - 0.05(q) + 0.25q = $5.40

1.6 - 0.05q + 0.25q = $5.40

1.6 + (0.25 - 0.05)q = $5.40

1.6 + 0.2q = $5.40

Step 4: Subtract 1.6 from each side of the equation to isolate q

1.6 - 1.6 + 0.2q = $5.40 - 1.6

0.2q = 3.8

Step 5: Divide each side of the equation by 0.2 to isolate q

0.2q

0.2

3.8

0.2

q = 19

Step 6: Using our value for q, Solve for n using our Coin Total Equation:

n + 19 = 32

Subtracting 19 from both sides, we get n + 19 - 19 = 32 - 19

n = 13

Summarizing our word problem, we see that 19 quarters and 13 nickels adds up to $5.40

some psychologists believe that a genius should be defined as anyone having an IQ over 140. If IQ scores are normally distribute

denis23 [38]

Answer:

61,239,550

Step-by-step explanation:

We let the random variable X denote the IQ scores. This would imply that X is normal with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 17. We proceed to determine the probability that an individual chosen at random from the population would be a genius, that is;

Pr( X>140)

The next step is to evaluate the z-score associated with the IQ score of 140 by standardizing the random variable X;

$Pr(X>140)=Pr(Z>\frac{140-100}{17})=Pr(Z>2.3529)$

The area to the right of 2.3529 will be the required probability. This area from the standard normal tables is 0.009314

From a population of 6,575,000,000 the number of geniuses would be;

6,575,000,000*0.009314 = 61,239,550
